[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other post about rigor made me think about how we might pool our collective knowledge to help new HS parents support their kids in building a rigorous HS path outside the Magnets. Right now, it seems like the standard guidance really short-changes kids who are ready for a challenge, particularly in 9th and 10th, with the "Honors for All" model. So, if you were helping a bright kid choose classes for 9th and 10th, what would you advise? [/quote] Just stop. All MCPS HS's have rigorous classes. It is not "honors for all" many kids take regular classes and gee wiz they also go to college and do well in life. If you want "rigorous" your kid must be qualified to take higher math and science. AP's and Honors. Why is this a hard concept? My kids did math at min 2 years a head of their peers from 3rd grade on. Is your kid that advanced? Doubt it. Another MCPS parent who thinks their gifted kid is Young Sheldon. Idiot. [/quote]
